Apple Crème Fraîche Pie
[Photograph: Lauren Weisenthal]
This is a great alternative to regular apple pie, filled with a rich tangy custard and tender, tart baked apples. Don't forget to sprinkle the pie with the oat topping before applying the lattice crust, which gives the finished pie a golden brown top and extra crisp texture.
This recipe is (very) loosely based on one from The Joy of Cooking's 9th edition.
